SSAB recently appointed Duun Industrier from Åsen to be the first My Inner Strenx member in Norway. Duun Industrier manufactures among other things firewood processors, front loader equipment, snow management equipment and sand spreaders, and has done so for 60 years.

Using Strenx in the production process has been a natural choice for Duun Industrier. After the evaluation process was performed by SSAB, Duun now belongs to the exclusive team of My Inner Strenx members.

“We have been running this family business for 60 years and it felt like a natural step to apply for this certification. We have constantly strived to be at the forefront of technical solutions and choice of material, and now we are the first My Inner Strenx member in Norway,” says Karl Martin Eggen, new managing director at Duun.

Duun Industrier is a fully Norwegian company with all production, testing and development taking place in-house. Most of the products are sold on the Norwegian market, but some products are also exported.

“I am very proud to welcome Duun Industrier as the first My Inner Strenx member in Norway,” says Tobias Appelkvist, Sales Manager Norway. The long company history and their quality products, ensure a successful continuation”.

To ensure high quality and productivity from the production, Duun Industrier has been at the forefront in utilizing robotic welding systems including an FMS plant. This extensive use of technology is combined with manual welding to create flexible and customer-oriented production.

In addition to manufacturing Duun brand products, Duun Industrier offers several different solutions and expertise as a subcontractor. Laser cutting, nibbling, press bending of sheet metal as well as a range of welding and surface treatment operations are some of the services they offer b2b customers.
